What s wrong with chicks that don t sleep at night and keep barking?

At night, the chicks keep crowing because they feel that there is nothing around and they are lonely, or because the temperature is too low and they feel cold.

You can buy two chicks and keep each other company without feeling scared, thus reducing the situation of barking all the time.

Newly hatched chicks can prepare a warm nest for the chicks in advance, which can be used in cardboard boxes and laid with straw; It is advisable to control the temperature at about 32 in the first week of shelling, and then reduce it by 2 per week until it drops to about 20. Chicks should be exposed to fresh air at all times, keep warm and pay attention to ventilation.

How to care for the chicks that have just come out of the shell:

1. To prepare a warm chicken nest for the chicks in advance, cartons can be used, and straw should be laid in the cartons, and attention should be paid to avoid cold wind blowing into the cartons and causing the chicks to be cold.

2. It is more appropriate to control the temperature of the chick in the first week of shelling at about 32, and then reduce it by 2 per week until it drops to about 20. And the temperature difference between day and night can not be greater than 1, to try to maintain a constant temperature, the temperature difference is too large to easily cause chicks to be unable to fully absorb the yolk.

3. It is necessary to let the chicks always be exposed to fresh air, while keeping warm, they also need to pay attention to ventilation, when the weather is better, the chicks can bask in the sun to prevent soft foot disease, under normal circumstances, do not feed the chicks within 24 hours of being out of the shell, and need to feed the food that is easier to digest after starting to feed.

4. When feeding, a small amount of food is needed many times, and it is better to feed wet food, and the number of feeding times can be gradually reduced in the future, and then it is also necessary to feed warm water appropriately. Usually clean the chicken house, do not have residual food, avoid food mold and deterioration, and pay attention to vaccination and epidemic prevention.

If it is caused by cold or fear, keep it warm.

When raising chicks, you need to put them in cardboard boxes or wooden boxes, and then put some straw or cotton in the box to keep them warm, and ensure that the environment is ventilated and breathable, so that the indoor humidity is kept between 55 and 65 percent, so as to avoid the death of chicks.

When raising chicks, the breeder needs to insist on wearing clothes of the same color to make the chicks feel friendly, and can not place red lights in the box, so as not to make the chicks anxious, and at night, turn off the lights to let the chicks sleep in the dark.

If the chicks that are bought back keep barking, there are basically two reasons:

The first is that the chick may be hungry and needs to attract attention by meowing to feed him.

The second type is that the chick is not very adaptable to the new environment, and is afraid of being nervous, so it keeps barking.

The third is that chicks may feel cold.

It can generally be alleviated by the following methods:

First, if the chicks feel cold, they can be put in a warm box or spread some hay, and if the temperature rises in the surrounding environment, the chicks will stop crowing.

Second, it is best for the breeder who feeds the chicks to wear the same clothes, and if the chicks have a sense of intimacy and feel that they are not strangers, they will also feel that they will also be quiet.

Third, go and pet the chicks often.

There are generally two factors that affect this kind of depressed situation.

On the one hand, because the chicks are not used to the wild when they first arrive in an unfamiliar environment, and they are not familiar with the surrounding environment, it is easy to keep screaming because of fear.

Another aspect is that the chicks are hungry and hope to attract the attention of the hen or the breeder through their crows.

The ways to solve the above problems are as follows:

1. Place multiple chicks in a basket at night and calm them down by covering them with a black cloth.

2. Feed them, let them eat wholeheartedly to ease their mood, and then calm down.
